Truth. Just about every major old school cartoon character is a prick, even if they changed into something more innocent.

My favorite is Mickey Mouse and how much of an ass he is in the old black&white cartoons.

I wonder if OP's reaction has to do with the fact that their dickish pranks have real world consequences. Other cartoons characters can't die from falling from a skyscraper, but Eddie can.

That was my thought as well. Although, I think they've got some sort of mental block. Like they know humans can easily die, but it's very hard for them to actually process and understand it.

Well, those hyenas clearly are shown to be going to heaven. Perhaps they think humans don't die permanently?

I also it assume it has something to do with the fact they were all drawn to do these crazy things to each other, regardless of whether the person survives. They have no empathy because they were drawn to have no empathy. It's just they're also drawn to survive all their pranks.

A nitpicky point but they were weasels, not hyenas.

I find it hard to believe that toons don't know how humans work and don't understand that humans can die from the things that toons would survive. They are shown interacting with humans all the time, it's not like Eddie was some mystical creature to them, the likes of which they've never seen before.

I can get on board with the lack of empathy part though.

It's not that I think they don't realize they can die, it's that it's either A) they assume humans go to heaven, since the weasels (I remember them laughing so much--that's usually a hyena thing!) do, or B) they're not drawn to care whether something dies, since they wouldn't need to care in a world where nothing dies.

Didn't he threaten to kill himself if Minnie wouldn't marry him or something?

There's a series of comics where he considers suicide a few times because Minnie got a new boyfriend.

Hm. I'm probably remembering Superman.
